Default Any decent maps of Melbourne

Does anyone know of any downloadable maps, of the suburbs of Melbourne. So I can figure out where places are in relation to other places eg Aspendale to Melbourne CBD.

I've been on the wehereis website but unless you no an address, or place of interest your not able to search.


Thanks
Ange

Google is a very good option - also look at www.zoomin.com.au which produces the same sort of maps for Oz and NZ. A friend also has a mock up site giving mapped information for the Bayside area - www.illuka.com - very bare but shows what can be done.
